Chapter 13 Vitiligo
As soon as it was dawn, everyone had already returned to the village.
The early morning rural air is filled with a faint humidity, and you will feel sweet in your mouth when you take a sip, and this time is also the coolest moment in summer, when the sun has not yet appeared, and the morning fog is still filling.
At this time, in the courtyard of Dazhu's house, everyone didn't feel the comfort of the morning, but just looked at the sleeping Dazhu in the house, and their hearts were shocked, mainly because Dazhu was a little violent.
"Ah Qing, what do you think is going on?" Several people thought that Ah Qing should know about this, after all, Ah Qing, who had been declared dead, could be saved.
Ah Qing shook his head, in fact, he didn't know too much, he vaguely knew a little, but he wasn't sure yet, so he could only observe and observe.
"Alas!" Dazhu's father sighed fiercely.
"Dazhu is fine, although it's not clear what the situation is now, but at present. Not a bad thing. Ah Qing comforted.
"Let's come back when the pillar wakes up. Father patted Dazhu's father on the shoulder.
"Don't publicize this matter yet, let's talk about it later?" the father nodded, and then walked out of the door with Ah Qing and the little beggar.
The little beggar has a name, Ah Qing asked on the road, her name is Wu Dongdong, some masculine names, I heard her say that when her parents were still alive, they always wanted a boy, and they always raised her as a son. Later, she had a younger brother, but he fell ill and died when he was three years old, so now she is the only one in the family, and in order to see a doctor, she has sold her family's farmland, and now there is still an adobe house in the house, but it is dilapidated, leaking rain everywhere, and there is no way to go back for the time being.
When he got home, Ah Qing arranged Wu Dongdong in the East House, which was quite clean, and he didn't need to clean up too much, and he could live in the bed with a mat.
"That house is a bathing place, you can go and wash it in a while, there are no women's clothes in the house, I will go and borrow you a few now." Ah Qing was a little shy, pointed to the small house at the junction of the hall and the west house, and left in a hurry after speaking, ignoring the hungry cries of chickens and ducks in the yard.
Wu Dongdong was also a little embarrassed, but when she looked at her dirty hands, face, and clothes, she couldn't help blushing, thinking that she was also a girl who loved cleanliness very much, I don't know when she became so sloppy.
Looking at the white, black, and pink arms in her hands, she felt a sudden pain in her heart, yes, since she suffered from vitiligo, she has given up on herself a little.
"Let's hope he can really cure me. Wu Dongdong muttered, and began to clean up the house.
Ah Qing came back soon, still holding a few cloth shirts in his hand, at first the neighbors were not happy to borrow it, after all, the clothes worn by people with vitiligo, who would dare to ask for it, at this time, people are still very afraid and disgusted with vitiligo, but under Ah Qing's hard pleading, the neighbor's eldest sister gave Ah Qing two pieces, and he didn't plan to ask for it, in this era, the family is not very rich, and many of the clothes are patched and spliced together, so the clothes in Ah Qing's hands are also full of patches.
Ah Qing didn't think about giving his father or his own clothes to Wu Dongdong to wear, but on the one hand, he had to pay attention to the influence, so as not to gossip about the neighbors, although Wu Dongdong was a patient, but he would inevitably be chewed by the women in the village, on the other hand, Ah Qing and his father's clothes were relatively wide, and Wu Dongdong was only about one meter six, and he was relatively thin and couldn't hold it up at all.
"I'll put this on later. Ah Qing put her clothes on the bed.
Wu Dongdong nodded shyly.
After Ah Qing finished speaking, she left the courtyard, and when she finished washing, she came in, and she would observe the extent of her illness for a while, and then see how to treat her.
Vitiligo has been recorded since ancient times and has a long history, on the one hand, it is caused by genetic immunity problems, and on the other hand, it is caused by the pollution of the living and dietary environment. It is recorded in the "Fifty-two Prescriptions" during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and it is recorded in the book that the names of diseases such as "white place" and "white no play" refer to depigmented skin diseases including vitiligo.
For example, "white prescription: take the irrigation green, one of which is irrigated, take the salt of the mouth twenty points of the bucket,......。 ”
"Bai Wuxuan (belly), take the blood of dansha and fish, if you use chicken blood, you can do it. ”
It was first discovered in the Sui Dynasty's "Treatise on the Origin and Syndrome of Diseases", which recorded: "Vitiligo, the flesh color of the face and neck and body becomes white, which is different from the flesh color, and it is not itchy and painful, which is called vitiligo." ”
Subsequently, in the Tang Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty, there were records and many treatments, but most of them were verified by later generations and did not have significant curative effects.
Among them, the most classic is the Tang and Song dynasties, and it is also the most widely spread. During the Tang and Song dynasties, the "General Record of Shengji" was the first time in the literature that the "white barge wind" was recorded: "The white barge wind on the body of the noodle item, the coating formula: the juice willow tree in the cavity of the raw wood tree is the upper ......." ”
According to the book "Ren Zhai Zhizhi Fang", it is recorded that red and vitiligo are collectively referred to as "leprosy": "Cure red and vitiligo prescription: sulfur." Understand the alum (and begotten), the top is the last......... Leprosy formula: realgar, sulfur, Huang Yu Dan, Tantra monk, Da Nanxing, the upper part is divided into the end, first rub the affected area with ginger juice, and then rub the ...... with ginger dipping medicine. ”
But Aqing's treatment method is completely different, but this depends on the specific situation, it is recorded in the internal scriptures, the human body is a small universe that circulates endlessly, yin and yang are balanced, if the circulation is hindered, yin and yang are unbalanced, then the human body will be sick, as long as the circulation is restored, yin and yang are reconciled and balanced, then the disease will naturally be cured.
Ah Qing stood outside the courtyard for about half an hour before he saw Wu Dongdong push open the bathroom door, his black hair fell down to his shoulders, wet and steaming, and his body was graceful, if it weren't for the white and black powder on his body skin, he would be a beauty.
"Sit in the yard and I'll show you. Ah Qing walked into the courtyard and smiled unnaturally, he was a little shy.
"Hmm. Wu Dongdong said softly, and then sat down on the bench under the jujube tree.
Ah Qing also leaned closer, and his eyes lit up in an instant, and then he saw clearly that the standard goose egg face, the tip of the nose was straight, the skin was delicate, the face was the kind of pink and white after the skin was completely faded, there was no variegation to the neck, brown and black bright eyes, long eyelashes, there was a special style, she was looking at A Qing shyly at the moment.
Ah Qing coughed lightly, hiding his unnaturalness, and sighed in his heart, no wonder he dressed himself up so dirty, and he was quite beautiful.
Ah Qing rubbed his hands, gently grabbed Wu Dongdong's arm, and observed it carefully, at this time, the pink and white had occupied most of the skin, and the remaining part was yellow-black like the patches, and the whole skin was very messy and mottled.
"How's it going, A-Qing?" Wu Dongdong's voice was weak.
"It's okay, I already know what the situation is, I'll fill you with medicine in a moment. Ah Qing retracted his hand, stood up, and began to think in his heart.
At this time, my father didn't know what to do when he went out, and he wanted to ask him about medicinal herbs.
"Vitiligo on the hands (crazy): A impatiens, boiled and washed with clay sand cho. "It is recorded in the Neijing, but there is also a medicinal herb, Ah Qing doesn't know if his father has it, that is, the snake molt, because there are few snakes near the village, let alone snake molt.
These are just the basics, the most important thing Ah Qing didn't say, and he was not embarrassed to say it, thinking that he would secretly add it later.
Wu Dongdong had already turned around and went back to the east house to stay, Ah Qing went into his father's study and began to rummage through those medicinal materials, at this time, Ah Qing saw that there was no one around, so he secretly took out a glass bottle from the corner of the house, and quietly urinated half a bottle into it, burnt yellow, with turbidity, with a faint smell of urine, undoubtedly the purest child urine.
The most important thing is that this boy urine, you can't use water to boil medicinal herbs, you can only use child urine, in order to avoid being discovered, Ah Qing can only prepare in advance, after all, no one is happy that others smear urine on their bodies, and they will be boiled in a casserole for a while, and they can be used tomorrow morning.
After a while, Ah Qing finished looking for the medicinal materials from the study, and fortunately even found half of the snake molt.
Ah Qing got up and came to the yard with satisfaction, there is an earthen stove in the yard, made of clay, due to long-term baking, it has become black and yellow, half a meter high, oval-shaped, boiling water and cooking are here on weekdays.
"Wu Dongdong, do you know how to cook?" Ah Qing shouted as he looked at Wu Dongdong, who was cleaning and busy in the yard.
"Yes. Wu Dongdong said.
"Then you go to the house and get some rice, and take that little pot, boil some porridge and drink, and you can eat when Dada comes back." Ah Qing put up the casserole and quickly opened Wu Dongdong, because he was about to release his boy's urine.
Pouring the boy's urine into the casserole, Ah Qing looked at the room with a weak heart, and threw the glass bottle far away.
